I remember there being more than two examples of this but these two come to mind

nah i liked imagining characters from my favorite media doing cool shit to cool music

Of course Konami couldn't resist attempting to turn Pastel, pilot of Player 2 ship Winbee, as a sort of idol, giving her gravure pin-ups, figures, image cds. She still lives on in Bombergirl I suppose... I suppose...

*I want to learn JP to play Twinbee RPG I am that needy*

I do have the Kotobukiya plastic model of Twinbee that I put together a couple years ago but I think it is storage with other figures from when I was moving figures around. He comes with his iconic hammer and also GUN

the WORST? oh fuck, that's.. pretty damning.. Now I'm worried if I like it it'll be like when I got picked on during the Other M days (granted Other M has even more glaring issues but...)
